What is the exchange rate?? It wasn't too bad for me.... i think it was $600.... i wouldn't have minded getting an orange american jazz
bass, but they are like $1600.... but my friend has me wanting a Carl Thompson Custom bass, which start at $3500 (american) and he only makes them for
certain people..... he'd never make me a bass .... my amp is decent, i have a 100W Yorkville Bassmaster, i love it too.... i want to buy a
new guitar over the christmas holidays.... i want to trade in my electric guitar and buy an acoustic with an electric pickup..... hm......

The Aussie dollar is somewhere between 60 and 65 US cents, but everywhere around here has MASSIVE markups on music equipment (I've only just
gotten in good with a place so I can get things a lot cheaper now).
As for my amp and stuff I've got a Fender Bassman 200, it set me back $2000. It's a sweet amp it has an awesome sound to it, only problem
is I haven't even had it for a year but it's been playing up heaps, keeps cutting out on me even though I'm not running it very hard
(gain on 8, master vol on 5 is my standard room setting). Had it in twice to be fixed and it's still faulty, so I'm just saving up for
something new, probably try and get an 8x10 cab and (dreaming) an SWR Mo' Bass head. That's a few grand to spend that I don't have
though, so I dunno how soon I'll be getting it.
I've also got a monterey amped acoustic and a crybaby which is hella cool when used with slap, makes the best sound.

I have to say, the best part about the bassmaster 100, is that when you're not using it, it doubles as a table. I am using mine as a speaker
stand as I write this.

lol, it does make a good table..... right now it has a towel, some bristol board and some equipment (headphones, patchcords, etc.) on it..... It also
makes a lovely seat to sit on when you are feeling lazy.

You're right, I was just overreacting.
And ya, I'm going tonight. Didn't Alex give you your money back? The 12 dollars for the show, I mean? You pay at the door when you get
there.

Chris will probably just erase a bunch of the posts. I think that's what he has been doing.
